[[{{PAGENAME}}]] is a low to medium encumbrance armor. Thanks to its versatile components, it can provide additional benefits compared to [[Leather Armor]] even at the same encumbrance, while an armor plate can be added to increase damage resistances, tresholds and encumbrance.

'''Tactical Vest''' is an is an [[Armor|armor suit]]. {{Infobox quality note|50}}
 +
 
 +
== Description ==
 +
Armor suit that can range anywhere from low to high armor penalty depending on the components used. It consists of a vest and a ballistic panel and can also use various optional overcoat fabrics. All tactical vests have 200% increased {{mechanical}} damage threshold against firearms. An optional armor plate can be added to increase damage thresholds, weight and armor penalty.
 +
 
 +
Tactical vest is similar to [[Riot Gear]], the main difference being an armor plate instead of a hand-held riot shield. Tactical vests also have lower base armor penalty, provide more protection against bullets but less against melee attacks. Compared to [[Leather Armor]], it can provide additional benefits even at the same armor penalty and allow a mix of stealth, mobility, damage avoidance and absorption, thanks to its versatile components.

Tactical Vest is an is an armor suit. All infobox examples on this article are crafted from Quality 50 components unless noted otherwise.

Description

Armor suit that can range anywhere from low to high armor penalty depending on the components used. It consists of a vest and a ballistic panel and can also use various optional overcoat fabrics. All tactical vests have 200% increased Mechanical damage threshold against firearms. An optional armor plate can be added to increase damage thresholds, weight and armor penalty.

Tactical vest is similar to Riot Gear, the main difference being an armor plate instead of a hand-held riot shield. Tactical vests also have lower base armor penalty, provide more protection against bullets but less against melee attacks. Compared to Leather Armor, it can provide additional benefits even at the same armor penalty and allow a mix of stealth, mobility, damage avoidance and absorption, thanks to its versatile components.

Crafting

Tactical Vest can be crafted with Blueprint: Tactical Vest.
